App Camp For Girls

Jean MacDonald, prominent app developer and partner at Smile Software, raised more than $100,000 on Indiegogo for an “App Camp For Girls” to address the gender imbalance among software developers. The camp, which launched this summer, gives young girls the chance to learn how to build apps, be inspired by influential female instructors and get exposure to a future career in software development. Jean’s goal is to grow the non-profit camp into a national organization, with programs in multiple cities.
